We have had the stomach bug a lot this winter...a whole lot! Back when the kids were younger, them throwing up was probably on my list of my top ten fears...maybe even my top five. Now, not so much. I hate when they are sick, but all of them are so good about making it either to the bucket or making it to the toilet.

On Sunday evening, my Little Man started complaining of a tummy ache. Any time that happens, my husband and I have set up a basic procedure : move the child with the complaint to the couch, get out the old towel, and place the bucket with a trash bag in it in the proper place (on top of the old blanket) at a close distance to the child. We have it down to a science. Then we wait...and usually it doesn't take long.

The puking started and my Little Man was a champ. He slept most of the day on Monday and was almost back to normal on Tuesday. We now cross our fingers and hope that my efforts yesterday of wiping the place down with lysol did some good.

About Me

Our little family has had quite the journey. In the past eleven years of marriage, we have seen the good and the bad. We've suffered losses and enjoyed God's blessings. It's taken me years to realize that life doesn't always look like a fairy tale...but, I am living my happily ever after with the love of my life and my three beautiful children. Here is where I write about my journey, my ups and downs, my family, and everything in between.
